Back on a scoot shortly.Going up from Christchurch to Wellington to pick up this beauty on Saturday. It's a 2006 Vespa GTS250ie. Shake down ride will be the 500kms to Christchurch on Sunday.After all these years I miss the simplicity of a scoot around the city. The Deauville is just to big and heavy around town. The traffic wardens excuss a scoot on the pavement but not a big motorbike.

I think the scoot will be a blast and will be subjected to some long distance cruising like this.
